Launch of pan-African Liberal initiative

I found this, as reported in Liberal Democrat Voice, inspiring. It is good to see that UK Liberal Democrats are supporting the Africa Liberal Network. Throughout Africa, communities and small entrepreneurs are an essential part of traditional society. It seems to me that UK Liberal Democracy is in tune with this, while we have more informed views than some reactionary African states about basic social needs which we can bring to the table.
